# Golf Course POS for Kenya Public & Private Golf Clubs

A purpose-built POS system for Kenya golf courses to manage tee time bookings, memberships, green fees, cart rentals, pro shop sales, and food & beverage operations from one platform.

Manage tee times, memberships, and pro shop sales with one powerful golf POS.

## Problems We Solve

- **Member, Guest, Twilight, Weekend — and the Green Fee Is a Guess** — A member plays free or discounted, their guest pays a rate, twilight is cheaper, weekends cost more. Working the right green fee out by hand at check-in slows the queue, and a wrong call means you undercharge a paying guest or overcharge a member who notices.
- **The Halfway House Queue While Groups Wait to Tee Off** — Golfers want a quick drink and a snack at the turn, and the clubhouse fills after rounds — but slow transactions back everything up and players miss their slot. Lost F&B sales at the turn and a clubhouse that cannot keep pace cost you easy, high-margin revenue.
- **A Gap on the Tee Sheet Is Money You Never Get Back** — A tee time that goes out empty is revenue gone forever — you cannot sell yesterday's 9am again. When walk-ins, phone bookings, and member play are juggled on a paper tee sheet, slots get double-booked or sit empty, and the course's most perishable asset quietly leaks money every day.
- **Carts and Hire Clubs That Go Out and Do Not Come Back** — A cart goes out with a four-ball, hire clubs leave the shop, range balls walk off — and nothing ties them to the round or the player. At day's end you cannot say what is still out on the course, and the losses on expensive kit add up over a season.

## How EliteTeQ Solves It

- Process clubhouse and on-course F&B fast on the same system, chargeable to a member account or paid on the spot. *Players are served quickly at the turn and after rounds, capturing easy, high-margin F&B revenue.*
- Set green fees by member, guest, time slot, and day type so the right price is applied automatically at check-in. *The queue moves fast, members are charged correctly, and you stop under- or over-charging at the first tee.*
- Manage the tee sheet live with walk-ins, bookings, and member play on one view, so every slot is filled and never double-booked. *You stop leaking revenue on empty and clashing tee times and get the most out of your most perishable asset.*
- Track carts, hire clubs, and range usage against each round and player, logged out and back in. *You always know what is out on the course, losses on expensive kit drop, and disputes end.*

## Payments & Compliance in Kenya

Built for Kenyan businesses with KRA eTIMS compliance, instant M-Pesa reconciliation, KES pricing, and full offline mode for areas with unreliable internet.

Trade concentrates in Nairobi and along the Mombasa corridor, with county towns served by traders who restock weekly from the capital. Mobile money reaches further than banking does, so even rural shops settle by phone. Month-end and school-term dates move retail demand more than any promotion.

**Accepted payment methods in Kenya:** M-Pesa (STK Push & Till/Paybill), cards, and bank transfers.

## Frequently Asked Questions

- **What currency and payment methods does EliteTeQ POS support in Kenya?** EliteTeQ POS prices in KES (KSh) and records M-Pesa, card and cash against the same sale, so golf courses businesses in Kenya close the day on one set of reconciled totals instead of three. Tax invoices are produced to KRA requirements, and the till keeps working when the connection drops.
- **What should a golf courses business in Kenya look for in a POS system?** In Kenya, a POS has to reconcile M-Pesa against the sale and issue an eTIMS invoice without slowing the queue. Trade concentrates in Nairobi and along the Mombasa corridor, with county towns served by traders who restock weekly from the capital. Mobile money reaches further than banking does, so even rural shops settle by phone. Month-end and school-term dates move retail demand more than any promotion. EliteTeQ POS is built around those conditions rather than adapted to them after the fact, with KES pricing and KRA-ready invoicing.
- **Can the POS manage tee time bookings?** Yes, EliteTeQ POS fully supports tee time scheduling and green fee billing in a single integrated workflow. Staff can book, modify, and cancel tee times directly at the point of sale, with automatic green fee calculation based on the time slot, day type, and player category such as guest or junior. Completed rounds are billed immediately, reducing check-in queues and eliminating the manual reconciliation of booking records against payment receipts.
- **Does it support golf memberships?** Yes, EliteTeQ POS includes built-in support for annual and seasonal memberships with configurable privileges for each tier. Membership cards or accounts can be linked to player profiles, granting automatic discounts on green fees, cart rentals, and pro shop purchases when a member checks in or swipes at the register. Renewal dates, usage history, and benefit balances are tracked in real time, making it straightforward to manage large member rosters without separate spreadsheets.
- **Can I manage a golf pro shop?** Yes, a full retail inventory and sales management module is built into EliteTeQ POS, making it well suited to running a golf pro shop alongside the course itself. Stock levels for clubs, apparel, balls, accessories, and other merchandise are updated in real time with every sale, and low-stock alerts help ensure popular items are reordered before they run out. Staff can process retail transactions, apply member discounts, and bundle pro-shop purchases with green fees all from the same system, keeping the entire customer transaction under one receipt.
- **Is it suitable for public and private golf courses?** Yes, EliteTeQ POS is designed to work for private clubs, resort courses, and public facilities, accommodating the different operational models each requires. Private clubs can leverage the membership management and privilege tiers, resorts can integrate course revenue with broader hospitality workflows, and public courses benefit from the fast guest check-in and flexible green fee pricing. The platform's configurable settings mean operators can tailor access controls, pricing rules, and reporting to match their specific course type without requiring custom development.
- **Can I track golf cart and equipment rentals?** Yes, golf cart and equipment rentals are tracked per round directly within the POS, so every hire is attached to a specific tee time and player record. The system records which cart or equipment item was assigned, the duration of use, and any associated fees, giving staff a clear audit trail from checkout to return. This approach prevents unrecorded hires, simplifies end-of-day reconciliation, and makes it easy to identify which assets are currently in use on the course.

## From the EliteTeQ Team

**We know an empty tee time is money you never get back.** We know the paper tee sheet that double-books and leaks slots, the green fee guessed at check-in, and the carts that go out and do not come back. EliteTeQ was not built in a boardroom — it was built next to real golf clubs in Nairobi, filling tee sheets, pricing by player type, and running the pro shop and halfway house. So when you message us, a real person replies — someone who understands tee times, memberships, and cart rentals — not a script. No jargon, no pressure, and an honest answer even if it is "you might not need us yet."
